re: #174 Fozzie Bear

That’s because Ryan isn’t taking a serious look at the causes of the problem. We absolutely cannot tax our way out of this. We also cannot trim our way out of this. Neither approach, by itself, is feasible. We need to both raise taxation, and decrease spending. There’s no sane way to do this without doing both.

So… I’m 59. I’m closer to SS and these other programs than some people. According to this proposed 2012 budget by the GOP, what kind of reductions and cuts can I expect to come up against in the near future. I’m concerned.
